Default Copying Mail to OE

It's simple drag & drop, Willy.

1. Open the folder that's located on your desktop.

2a. Open OE so that both OE and the open folder are visible on your monitor
at the same time.

2b. If the OE Folder pane isn't visible, make it so via View | Layout |
Folder list.

3. Now drag one or more of the EML files in the open folder to any folder in
the Folder list.

Once I copy to Desktop, then what? Don't Folder have to be open to see
the
messages & how do I open it outside of OE?

Copy the folder to your desktop, NOT to/into OE's message store.

A question or 2 to your recommendations:
1. Copy the Folder into OE or just anywhere then drag the messages to
Folder
I want?

1. Copy the folder and its contents (EML files) to the WinXP machine.

2. Open the folder and OE on your screen.

3. Drag the message(s) directly into any OE folder.
